  • Jan K.

    I love this app. I use it daily. I work outside and I love having the radar to see what the weather will be in my neighborhood. The breaking news feature is beneficial. Easy to look up school closings and articles. I used the live stream when we had a tornado warning to keep track of the storm.
  • Weather is Missing One Thing

    I like the weather page on this app except that it’s missing one key weather metric. It doesn’t show the current dew point. I consider that to be a very important part of the total weather picture. It does show the humidity but without the dew point, I’m not getting the full picture. Add dew point and this would be 5 stars.

  • Dependable App

    I always watch NBC Chicago before work in the morning. This app provides the same current news and weather at my fingertips all day. I especially like the accurate weather reports. The radar is amazing, and I prefer it to other weather apps.
  • Keeps me in touch

    Although I moved out of Illinois, I depend on and enjoy your local news and weather to stay in touch. Frequent trips (every few weeks) are made easier and richer because you keep me up on everything. Plus, it is easier to understand what my friends and family are experiencing. Thank you! Just don’t forget to focus on good news!

  • Weather

    I have been a weather buff forever since I worked outside for 40 years. I find the very precise 5 day forecast right on and the satellite- precipitation radar amazing!!! I can scan out to Nebraska to see what’s coming or as simple as checking to see when the clouds are moving out to plan my outside work. Having 24 hour access to the weather makes my life so much easier!!!

  • Easy, Simple, Quick, & Not Annoying!!!

    I hate pop up notices on my cell with a passion!! This App has them. But they are limited to Chgo area and my town. Which I am near Chgo so it’s great to get both. Reminds me to watch the news if there is an interesting issue I want to hear about. Plus I don’t get a ton of them. So shirt, sweet, to the point that’s what makes it work!!

  • Had no problems

    I enjoy this app, it is a very reliable news source, and is very trustworthy compared to other news sources such as FOX. This will mostly give you news in the Chicago area, however, so I only recommend it to those living there or those curious about what’s going on around here.
  • Excellent News Source

    I like news that is just that: news. Commentary is someone's interpretation of the facts.

    NBC news is my have to source---where ever I am in the world of getting solid reports about developments across a range of topics. The writing is easy to understand without assuming readers are on a 3rd grade reading level.

    I really appreciate this excellent and pertinent news source!
